Yard Offering Jan 2011

This was flattened in my yard, next to the street. I hadn't received anything so nice in some time. My last notable offering.

Some days are more exciting than others

All before noon today:

1 - A plan for managing the confusing mix of multiple unrelated projects
2 - A big picture perspective, and plan, for dealing with a current small beans issue
3 - A one-liner rant about a current small beans issue (a different one), that seems funny to me now
4 - A pretty well fleshed-out idea for an exhibition of my work. Includes title and a good start in conceptualizing the idea and the actual language for describing the idea. It's looking more and more like "Spawn" paintings will be re-addressed from a different role of artistic authority.
5 - A pretty well fleshed-out idea for curating a group of work. Includes title and a good start in conceptualizing the idea and the actual language for describing the idea. I also know exactly who and where this show should be shown. It's an idea which I've been trying to distinguish for a few years. It still needs much work, but I now know how to pitch it in a way that preserves the integrity of the idea, and which will be understood by others.

Today I love this little pile of chaos.

Now go get dressed.

Thorazine Thursdays

From a newly scanned old slide. This is small, about 5" x 7", late 1990s, and has a great title, which I can't remember.
